Yeah no taggers yet ruining things.
Love love love!! New gallery!! YAY!

Fab shot :)
Is there any danger of radiation exposure near old equipment like this?
I would think there's no radiation risk as the machines are all turned off.
No radiation if theres in no power and someone actually taking an exposure
Where x-ray machines go to die..
ohmygosh I want that stuff
Off to the left looks like an iron cross?
This is not a very nice place inside but fun to see the old equiptment
Even though it's been a long time since these were in use, I'll bet this room glows in the dark @ night from leftover radiation
Ferdy, i was wondering if anyone would notice that! Thats what i thought when i looked at this for the first time.
That iron cross is a floor stand of some sort. You are seeing the bottom of it.
Nice shot! Those old x-ray machines might still have the tubes inside of them! The only danger visiting this room would be if you opened the equipment up and tried to remove the glass tube...if the tubes ever break you could be exposed to high levels of radiation...even if the equipment is off and old like this!!

BE CAREFUL~!
I also thought that they are not that nonhazardous. These machines have radioactive material inside thats dangerous even when they´re off, even more of there´s anything broken inside.
